We just had another instance of a syslog explosion with mangled afs
messages, this time from m66-080-8. I've blocked it from urania with
iptables, temporarily, and massaged urania's logs enough to un-fil the
disk. Logs were definately lost over the weekend, but I suspect no one
really cares. If someone reboots the workstation,, and lets me know
I'll unblock it.
Does anyone recall if we figured out what cause this in the past, or how
we dealt with it? maybe something to prevent the messages from being
sent to urania?
